The cold wind was blowing fiercely. In the former Hua Duwei's mansion, Aunt Zhao entered Huayuan's house holding a bowl of hot medicine.
A cough sounded from the bed, and Aunt Zhao handed the medicine to Hua Yuan who was lying on the bed. There were some unknown emotions in her eyes, but she quickly covered them up.
"Dalang, the princess has gone too far. She is from our Hua family. This is a bond engraved in our blood. How could she treat you like this?"
Seeing Hua Yuan coughing a few times, Aunt Zhao put on an unhappy face and said again:
"It's not that she doesn't know that as long as she is willing to sincerely admit her mistake, we don't have to set up this petition stall, right? Now that you are out of trouble, she, as a younger sister, is really disrespectful to the extreme.
.”
Hanagaki was half lying on the bed, coughing and drinking the medicine in the bowl. Then he put the medicine bowl down without saying a word and looked at the petition on his pillow.
In three days, thirty people came to sign, twenty-eight of them were people from Princess Biyue, one was Aunt Zhao, and one was Hua Yuan himself.
This result was unexpected by Huayuan.
He once thought about how there would be at least a few thousand signatures in such a huge Beidi City. After all, the evil Hua Jin did was not something a woman from a good family with three obediences and four virtues should do.
Doesn't meet the standards of a good wife and mother.
He even ignored Tsunasa.
Everyone knew she was not a good woman, but no one signed it.
In the orange candlelight, Aunt Zhao had a supple face. She looked at Hua Yuan and spoke tentatively,
"Dalang, shall we continue to look for people to sign autographs?"
Huayuan slowly shook his head.
In such a cold weather, even an Iron Man could not stand the cold even if he walked around outside. What's more, Huayuan stood in the cold wind for three days.
Although he had been practicing martial arts since he was a child, his body was not strong. Otherwise, he would not have fallen ill on the way to the north.
Seeing Hua Yuan shaking his head, Aunt Zhao immediately said flatteringly:
"Hey, let's not suffer like this. Just give me the petition and tomorrow I will go door to door to find someone to sign it. Don't tell me, although I am just the master's aunt, on weekdays people in this street
There are many neighbors, boudoir girls, and ladies I have become friends with."
After saying these words, Hua Yuan finally looked at Aunt Zhao squarely. There was a trace of emotion on his face and he asked:
"My father was in trouble and the other aunts have left. Why don't you leave?"
In fact, if Aunt Zhao hadn't stayed in Huadu Captain's Mansion, given their current status, they wouldn't have been able to talk to each other at such a close distance.
At least, there won't be such freedom.
Aunt Zhao held the handkerchief and pressed the corners of her eyes to cover the strong hatred in her eyes.
She seems to be about the same age as Huayuan, but she is actually one year younger than Huayuan. If it weren't for the torture Huayuan gave her and the damage caused to her body by miscarriage, she would still be as beautiful as a flower.
appearance.
I saw Aunt Zhao sobbing in a low voice:
"My master has been so kind to me. If it weren't for him, I would have fallen into the dust today... The Hua family has become my home. If I leave here, where can I go?"
She spoke so sincerely, as if her feelings for the Hua family were higher than the mountains and deeper than the sea.
Huayuan was so moved.
Comparing Aunt Zhao's deep love for the Hua family, and comparing it with Hua Jin's actions, it only makes people feel chilling.
Hua Yuan felt deep in his heart and handed the petition lying on his pillow to Aunt Zhao, and said solemnly:
"Then please ask my aunt to run away."
"This is as it should be."
Aunt Zhao held the petition in her hand and chatted with Hua Yuan about taking care of her health. She happened to meet the fat eunuch from Princess Bi Yue who came to visit her.
She took the petition and went out.
But in fact, Aunt Zhao did not leave far. Instead, she went around to the back of Hua Yuan's room and stood outside the window listening to Hua Yuan and the fat eunuch talking inside.
In the room, the fat eunuch lamented for a while how unfilial Hua Jin was, and also said how young and heroic Qu Le was, which was a pity.
The irritation made Hanayuan cough many times, and he said angrily:
"If it weren't for Hua Jin who forced Brother Le to hurt his feelings, why would he embark on the path of treason?"
"Who says it's not the case? This little Princess Li really doesn't do a lot of things."
The fat eunuch echoed and sighed again:
"This girl is so far away in the North. I really can only let you, my sister, cover the sky with one hand. There is no way to cure her."
"Hmph, if that little King Li could follow the wishes of the Holy One, he would naturally not indulge Hua Jin like this anymore. The Holy One wanted Little King Li to propose the position of Hua Jin himself and ask to marry Princess Biyue, but no matter what, the Little King wanted to marry Princess Bi Yue.
King Li has not made any move yet."
In the room, Hanagaki was talking and coughing again. The sound made him want to cough up his lungs. He panted for a while and said again:
"Ahem, cough, but it doesn't matter. The Beirong people are marching south this time. The battle is so big. The emperor will soon send an imperial envoy to the north. As long as the petition from all the people is completed, the emperor will issue it at that time. Even if Xiao Li Wang himself
If you are not willing to surrender Hua Jin’s position, your Majesty will not allow people like Hua Jin to continue to poison and harm Little King Li.”
These words make it seem as if the person Huayuan wants to deal with is not his sister at all.
It's really not something that a brother can say.
However, Hua Yuan's cruelty played into Aunt Zhao's hands. Her child was killed by Lady Hua before it was born. She could not see Lady Hua's child alive and well in the world.
Aunt Zhao, who was eavesdropping outside the window, got such important news. Her eyes were wandering in her eyes. She went out to find a scholar who could write. She spent a few taels of money and asked him to make up 10,000 names and write them in the petition.
superior......
While the scholar was racking his brains to compose a name, in Prince Li's Mansion, Hua Jin was planning with the city lord whether the pork from the pig farm should be broken into pieces and entered into the Beidi City vegetable market, or should be sold together.
After a long discussion, Hua Jin decided to buy another shop in Beidi City, called [Li Wang Pork Specialty Store].
We resell pork and various pork products.
"Since we are building the brand [Li Wang], of course we have to ask Little Li Wang to come out and cut the ribbon, mention a word or something, right?"
Hua Jin rolled up his sleeves and decided to do something drastic. Regardless of the constipated expression on the city lord's face, he only ordered Wu Tian next to him,
"Hurry up and call the prince back and ask him to write two big characters for me. At the same time, take his prince's golden seal and stamp it."
Wu Tian thought of Li Yunqing's noble and cold figure, came back to his senses, nodded and bowed,
"Yes, yes, I will do it now."
When turning around, Wu Tian and the city lord exchanged constipated looks, and both of them had a tacit understanding of not speaking.
Not long after Wu Tian left, a guard ran in and said anxiously:
"Mother, Princess Biyue is here with a bunch of eunuchs."
"Damn it, what is she doing here again?"
Hua Jin crossed her legs and held a handful of melon seeds in her hand, looking like she couldn't stand the tossing.
Didn't Bi Yue faint? Why didn't she faint for a few more days?
The guard hesitated and said:
"She said that Huayuan had already told her that the Lord's intention was that she should be the prince's main concubine, and you... you should be the side concubine, so from today on, she will live in our prince's palace."
